Well, they are digging for Hoffa again, thought you'd like to know....

Oakland Township, Michigan (CNN) -- The FBI -- working on information from an aging reputed mobster -- began digging in the waist-high grass of a Detroit-area field Monday in yet another search for the remains of former Teamsters boss Jimmy Hoffa, according to a law enforcement source with direct knowledge of the investigation.

The information that sparked the latest hunt in the nearly four-decades-long search for Hoffa is "highly credible," the source said.

Agents were executing a search warrant for a field in Oakland Township, north of Detroit, based in part on information provided by alleged mobster Tony Zerilli.

The paperwork filed under seal that accompanies the search warrant is described as "several pages long," according to the source, and it explains why the FBI believes the search is justified.

The location of Jimmy Hoffa's body is one of the great mysteries and conspiracy theories of all time. Proclaiming that you have found it is almost cliche. The recent news that the FBI is actually digging in Milford Township near Detroit for the body is exciting , but we shouldn't get our hopes up yet, it could take weeks. The rumor is that an informer in federal prison remembers meeting in that location thirty years ago.
